Yes, but on VM I pay £18.95 for phone with unlimited calls, on BT I will be paying £15.45 for phone with unlimited calls.

So tallying up -

VM
Broadband £37
Phone £18.95

Total £55.95

BT/Be*
Broadband £18
Phone £15.45

Total £33.45

Saving £22.50 per month and get Static IP and no STM.....To be honest I am 700m from the exchange, and by road its 1.4km, as long as I get a stable connection of 8Mb or faster I will be happy.

Had enough of throttled connection, working from home has become a nightmare lately, and found that sometimes I have to use works 3G modem just to remote desktop to a clients server, never had these issues before STM.
